Laughter gradually turned into crying as she buried her head in the sheets, sobbing uncontrollably.
How did the love between them beco like this?

Ti passed by the second as Mabel Quinn sat on the bed, her head lowered, staring blankly at her abdon.
He only gave her a simple choice: to save the child in her belly or to save her uncle’s life.
She never imagined there would be such a dilemma laid before her.
In her ears, she could almost hear the little life in her dreams calling her mommy, begging her not to abandon it.
At the thought of possibly losing this child, waves of pain surged through her heart.
The heart-wrenching pain was probably no more than this.
When she returned to her uncle’s intensive care unit, looking through the glass at him lying inside, the last scene of the car about to crash flashed through her mind.
She didn’t know what kind of mindset her uncle had to make such a choice. But she knew, when a crisis suddenly arises, how many people can resist the human survival instinct and make such a choice?
"Mabel, are you feeling unwell? Your face looks so pale," Thomas Quinn, who was also keeping vigil outside Edward Quinn’s hospital room, stood up and asked when he saw Mabel Quinn.
"Maybe thinking about uncle’s illness makes feel terrible," Mabel replied. "Is there really no hope for uncle?"
"Unless uncle can undergo another surgery soon, maybe there will be so hope. But..." Thomas sighed, "Right now, there’s no doctor in the whole of City J who dares to operate on uncle again in this condition. My father and I have contacted so renowned surgeons over the past few days, and after studying uncle’s case, they all held little hope."
Mabel Quinn’s heart kept sinking; only here with Kyle was there a sliver of hope for her uncle. But this slim chance of hope required exchanging the life of her unborn child.
Thinking of this, she felt a pang in her nose and took another deep gaze at Edward Quinn lying on the hospital bed, took a deep breath, and turned to leave.
At this mont, she had already made up her mind.
When she reached the elevator, Mabel Quinn took out her phone to see Kyle Kinston’s location. With their couple’s phone, as long as the other person carried their phone, they could see each other’s position.
And now, Kyle Kinston’s location was at the Corporation.
So Mabel Quinn told the bodyguard who was following her, "I’m not going back to the hospital room now, I’m going to the Corporation, I need to find Kyle."
"Yes, madam," the bodyguard replied, having previously been instructed by Mr. Kinston to follow all of madam’s arrangents.
As Mabel Quinn sat in the car arranged by the bodyguard, she gently placed her hand on her abdon. Her decision was cruel to the child.
But she had no choice but to make this decision; she couldn’t bear to watch uncle lose the last chance of "living." Yet she was also painfully aware that aborting this child would beco a lifelong "pain."
In this lifeti, she might never have another child, nor beco a mother again...
When the car arrived at the Corporation, Mabel Quinn didn’t have much difficulty entering and made her way to Kyle Kinston’s office.
